Natural assets, including natural areas like wetlands, forests, grasslands, and shorelines are important infrastructure assets, supporting services that communities rely on every day. From a single initiative in the Town of Gibsons in 2016 to working with over 140 local governments, professional associations, and provincial and federal jurisdictions today, NAI has led the development of the most widely accepted approach to natural asset management in Canada.

Join the growing number of governments across Canada that have started to account for natural assets and the services they provide, recognizing that investing in their maintenance, enhancement, and conservation is part of cost-effective, climate-resilient infrastructure planning.
